A. No, IJMB is an impact you will forever felt in all through your lifetime. Because when you go through it, most things you will be thought in your year one and two, will mostly be like a revision to you. If later you don’t get admission with it, is never being a waste.
But, you can have my words that the possibility of you being admitted through IJMB in Nigeria institutions is very much higher than using JAMB. Trust my words for that, I have being in this IJMB for few years now. I have reached a point where someone will just come up and say I don’t know what I’m saying
What Is The Possibility Of Gaining Admission With IJMB?
A. Very few students know about IJMB, I think every year ABU Zaria registered less than 20,000 IJMB students comparing to JAMB that over 1.5 million students sat down for it annually.
Comparing to universities, over 80 per cent of federal universities accept IJMB including states while we all know that all universities accept JAMB but comparing them, I’m sure you can figure out the possibility

Disclaimer: Some fraudulent elements have found another way of defrauding the unsuspecting potential IJMB students of their hard-earned money.
This is how they go about it, they lure students to register on their website, after the students might have parted away with their money, they will redirect them to our website during the registration process, that means, they will need to pay another registration fee of #8,500.
We will like to plead with the intending IJMB not to register with any other site than www.ijmb.com.ng. Â BE WARNED. Thank you.
